Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 2.10.0

Hello,

 

I am using several KE100 radiator thermostats connected via Matter to Home Assistant. Everything is visible, and I can normally control the devices.

 

Problem:

When the thermostat is in Frost Protection mode and I try to set a new target temperature (e.g. 23 °C) via Home Assistant, Alexa or Siri, the command does not work.

 

  • The thermostat stays in Frost mode.
  • If I manually switch to Heat mode, it restores the previous heating setpoint (not the new one).
  • Only after switching to Heat first, I can then adjust to the desired target temperature.

 

 

Expected behavior:

Other TRVs I used in the past automatically switched from Frost to Heat when setting a higher target temperature. The KE100 should directly activate heating with the newly requested target temperature.

 

Question:

 

  • Is this a known limitation of the current firmware/Matter implementation?
  • Can you confirm if this behavior will be fixed in a future update?

 

 

Thank you!

What other TRV did you use? Are they also integrated into Home Assistant through Matter?

eve thermo with matter. They worked as expected.

The KE100 TRV works fine with the TP-Link Smart Home integration in home assistant. Matter still not working.

  @5cr  Checked with the tech team, this is the expected behavior of KE100. Thank you for your suggestion, we will pass it to the relevant team for evaluation.
